Cyberattacks on refrigeration equipment in Poland. RMF FM arrangements

As RMF FM reporter Magdalena Grajnert found out, the attacks took place yesterday. None of them caused material losses. A small grocery store and a food distributor were attacked.

Employees noticed that the temperature of the devices was rising. They reacted quickly enough, removed and secured the food.

After the attack on refrigerators in France, NASK checked the entire network in Poland for available refrigerators - there were 140 of them - and informed the points where they were located that the equipment should be disconnected from the Internet. However, not everyone listened to the experts.

At the moment, we have about 70 devices available from the Internet, responsible for cooling systems in this type of facilities - says Marcin Dudek, manager of CERT Polska, RMF FM. It appeals to all entities to take the warnings seriously and avoid attack.

In recent days, there has been a lot of talk about cyberattacks on European supermarkets. The perpetrators raised the temperature in refrigerators, which led to the destruction of food. Such incidents occurred, among others: in Belgium, Sweden, Luxembourg, Estonia, the Netherlands and Ireland.
